“Dad, I’m so happy today.” 

In Qin Geng’s bedroom in the Purple Jade Villa, he hugged his father’s neck and acted sweetly. “I’m so happy to see my mother and sister today! Dad, are you happy too?” 

“Uh…” Qin Yang patted his son repeatedly. He looked at his sickly son and revealed a rare smile today. Surprisingly, he did not refute his son. 

Ever since the accident five years ago… there had been many more women who had overestimated themselves and approached him over the years. Many of them had taken a roundabout route to get together with him by trying to get close to Geng. He could not help but be cautious. 

Fortunately, his boy was very perceptive, which saved him a lot of trouble. But today, Qiao Nian was the first woman that Geng was fond of. Geng actually called her mother. It was probably because Geng had lacked motherly love for so long. 

Qin Yang could not help but think about Qiao Nian’s every move. It was strange that he himself was not repulsed by her. He thought of the unexpected kiss, the woman’s warm lips, and the soft and bouncy sensation of her breasts against his chest. What the hell?! Why didn’t he push her away at that time?! 

“Dad, why are you blushing?” Geng asked in confusion. 

Qin Yang coughed lightly. Damn it. Qin Yang didn’t know what was going on with him. How could he be daydreaming about that woman?! 

He hadn’t been close to women for many years, and the only time he was close to a woman was bac when. 

He shut his eyes tightly. He got a headache again! 

This was the top secret of the Qin family! The head-to-be of the family, Qin Yang, suffered from a rare type of cerebral congestion. Barely anyone knew that he was sick. 

It couldn’t be helped. The Qin family was nearly a thousand years old. Not only Qin Yang himself, but no one in the Qin family dared disclose the news of Qin Yang’s illness. They were afraid that someone with bad intentions would use them and destroy the family. No one could afford to take such a risk. 

This was also the reason why Qin Yang had clearly taken over the affairs of the Qin family and fulfilled his duties as acting head of the Qin family. However, the current family head still hadn’t announced the news of the change of family head. 

Qin Yang slowly patted Qin Geng’s back. The little boy was very sleepy. 

The doorbell rang. 

“Who is it?” Qin Yang quickly went to the door. 

“Uncle, you are so scary!” Outside the door was little Qiao Mo who was still not asleep due to jet lag. She stuck out her tongue and looked at Qin Yang mischievously. Then she rushed into the door and said, “Geng, Mo Mo is here to play with you!” 

“Dad, it’s Mo Mo!” Qin Geng shouted happily, “Dad, I want to play with Mo Mo for a while before I go to sleep.” 

“No, it’s too late.” Qin Yang refused stiffly. 

The two children’s faces immediately fell. Just when they were about to cry, Qiao Nian’s voice came from the stairway again, softly looking for Qiao Mo. 

“Mom, I’m in Geng’s room! I want to play with him, but Uncle won’t let me!” Qiao Mo complained. 

Qiao Nian walked over from the stairs. She had changed into her casual clothes- a champagne-colored silk dress wrapped around her body. Her long hair was draped over her sharp shoulders and almost glowed under the sparkling lights of the night. Her legs, which were smooth, stood cross-legged. She was gorgeous, 

“That won’t do.” Qiao Nian squatted down gently and gently pulled Qiao Mo over. “The moon is already up. Therefore, the children are going to sleep!” 

“But I’m not sleepy at all!” Qiao Mo pouted. 

“That’s because we took the plane today. Mommy told you about jet lag. But you’ll get better soon. Listen to me. Go to bed now and close your eyes for a while. You’ll sleep soon.” 

Qin Yang sat by the bed and listened to Qiao Nian coaxing the child gently. This scene made his cold-hearted self feel warm. 

“Mommy, Geng wants a story!” Little Qin Geng saw that Qiao Nian was coaxing Qiao Mo to sleep and wanted to be coaxed to sleep too. 

“This…” This was probably not appropriate! Qiao Nian stopped herself from saying anything. She looked at Little Qin Geng’s watery eyes, which were doe-like, and finally did not have the heart to say something that would hurt Qin Geng. 

“Is that okay, mommy?” Qiao Mo interrupted, “I’ll sleep at Geng’s place. Tell us a story. You can leave after we fall asleep!” 

“That’s right!” Little Qin Geng said, “I want to sleep with Qiao Mo. Mommy, if you’re scared, I can send dad to sleep with you to protect you!” 

“What?!” Qin Yang was embarrassed. “Geng, don’t talk nonsense. You’re already old enough to sleep alone!” He turned to Qiao Nian and said, “Take your daughter away!” 

“No!” Little Qin Geng cried out and spat out another mouthful of blood. 

Seeing this, Qiao Nian immediately went forward and pushed Qin Yang away. “You can’t be too harsh with your child; he has such a serious illness! How can you say such things as his father?” 

Qin Yang broke into a sweat.. Why did he feel like Qiao Nian was flirting with him?
